River Legacy
About Us:
River Legacy Foundation, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, began in 1988 as a unique public/private partnership with the City of Arlington. Our mission is to preserve and enhance the parkland along the Trinity River as an extraordinary educational, recreational and natural resource.
River Legacy Parks opened as a public park in 1990 with just 376 acres. Thanks to the Foundation’s donors and partnerships, the park has grown to become a 1,300-acre oasis along the Trinity River.
The Foundation founders knew from the start that an educational facility was necessary to ensure future stewards of the parkland. Thus, in 1996, River Legacy Living Science Center opened to the public. The nature center features interactive exhibits, aquariums, terrariums, environmental education programs, a gift shop and nature trails.
